Yessssss I was just starting to suffer such serious withdrawals that I’m back in the NQW archives, listening to old longlist and shortlist episodes.

The subliminal messaging (targeted emails, blatant abuse of FOMO social media advertising, and writing groups full of enablers) got me again.

Do what you love and you’ll never have a mental breakdown that isn’t worth it (that’s how the saying goes, right?)

Hmmmmmmmm one of these days I’ll learn to stop editing in the submission form and actually save a copy of what I submitted, and then these posts will stop feeling like I’m being chased through the wilderness by a serial killer

Finally, a flash fiction joke my husband can appreciate.
